Information for Users in the UK

This information is specific to the UK. If

you are using your TV in the UK, use this

information in conjunction with the rest ofthis manual.

Positioning the TV

For the best results, choose a position

where light does not fall directly on the

screen, and at some distance away from

radiators or other sources of heat. Leave

a space of at least 5cm around the TV forventilation. Ensure that curtains, cupboards

and other items cannot obstruct the air flow

through the ventilation apertures. The TV is

intended for use in a domestic environment

only and should never be operated or stored

in excessively hot or humid atmospheres.

Interference

The Department of Trade and Industry

operates a Radio Interference Investigation

Service to help TV licence holders improve

reception of BBC and IBA programmes

where they are being spoilt by interference.

If your dealer cannot help, ask at a main Post

Office for the booklet How to Improve Televi-

sion and Radio Reception.

Mains Connection

Before connecting the TV to the mains,

check that the mains supply voltage cor-

responds to the voltage printed on the

type plate on the rear panel of the TV. If

the mains voltage is different, consult your

dealer.

ImportantThis apparatus is fitted with an approved

moulded 13 AMP plug. Should it become

necessary to replace the mains fuse, this

must be replaced with a fuse of the same

value as indicated on the plug.

Remove fuse cover and fuse.

Replace the fuse.

The replacement fuse must comply with

BS 1362 and have the ASTA approval

mark. If the fuse is lost, contact your re-

tailer in order to verify the correct type.

Refit the fuse cover.

If for any reason the fitted plug is notsuitable for your socket outlet, consult

your retailer or a qualified electrician

before proceeding with the installation.

Connecting the Aerial

The aerial should be connected to the

socket marked : at the back of the set. An

inferior aerial is likely to result in a poor,

perhaps unstable picture with ghost images

and lack of contrast. Make-shift loft or set-

top aerials are often inadequate. Your dealer

will know from experience the most suitable

type for your locality. Should you wish to

use the set in conjunction with other equip-

ment, which connects to the aerial socket

such as TV games, or a video camera it is

recommended that these be connected via a

combiner unit to avoid repeated connectionand disconnection of the aerial plug.

Fitting the Stand (If Provided)

Use only the stand provided with the set.

Ensure that the fixings are properly tight-

ened. A diagram showing how to assemble

the stand is packed with the stand. Never

use a make-shift stand, or legs fixed with

screws.

Thank you for purchasing this TV. This

manual contains information about how to

install and operate your TV.

If this instruction manual does not answer

your problem or if the troubleshooting page

does not solve your problem, call your local

Philips customer or service centre. See the

supplied worldwide guarantee booklet for

details. Please have the model and product

number ready, before calling the Philipscustomer support service. The model and

product number can be found at the back or

bottom of your TV, or on the packaging.

Stationary Images

A characteristic of LCD and Plasma Panels

is that displaying the same image for a long

time can cause a permanent after-image to

remain on the screen. This is called phos-

phor burn in. Normal use of the TV should

involve the showing of pictures that contain

constantly moving and changing images that

fill the screen. The following list gives some

examples of stationary images that you may

encounter others in your viewing:

TV and DVD menus: listings of DVD

disk content.

Black bars: when black bars appear at

the left and right side of the screen, it is

recommended to change to a picture

format so that the picture fills the entire

screen.

TV channel logos: logos present a prob-

lem if they are bright and stationary.

Moving or low-contrast graphics are

less likely to cause uneven aging of thescreen.

Stock market stickers: presented at the

bottom of the TV screen.

1 Introduction

Shopping channel logos and pricing

displays: bright and shown constantly or

repeatedly in the same location on the

TV screen.

Examples of still pictures also include

logos, computer images, time display,

teletext and images displayed in 4:3

mode, static images or characters, etc.

TIP: Reduce contrast and brightness when

viewing.

Electric, Magnetic and Electromag-

netic Fields (EMF)

Royal Philips Electronics manufactures

and sells many products targeted at

consumers, which, like any electronic

apparatus, in general have the ability to

emit and receive electromagnetic signals.

One of Philips leading BusinessPrinciples is to take all necessary health

and safety measures for our products, to

comply with all applicable legal require-

ments and to stay well within the EMF

standards applicable at the time of

producing the products.

Philips is committed to develop, produce

and market products that cause no

adverse health effects.

Philips confirms that if its products are

handled properly for their intended use,

they are safe to use according to scien-

tific evidence available today.

Philips plays an active role in the

development of international EMF and

safety standards, enabling Philips to

anticipate further developments in

standardization for early integration in its

products.

Two people are required to lift and carry a

TV that weighs more than 25kg. Improper

handling of the TV can cause serious injury.

If you place the TV set on a surface, ensure

the surface is level and that it can withstand

the weight of the TV.

If you wish to hang your TV on a wall, do not

hang the TV yourself. Your TV must be hung

by qualified technician. Improper hanging can

cause the TV to be unsafe.

Before you hang your TV on a wall, ensure the

wall is suitable to carry the weight of the TV.

The connections do not have to be made

before you hang the TV, but the cables must

be inserted into the TV.

Wherever you place or hang the TV, ensure

that air can circulate freely through the

ventilation slots. Do not position the TV in a

confined space.

If the TV is mounted on a swivel base or

swivel arm, ensure no strain is placed on thepower cord when the TV is swivelled. Strain

on the power cord can loosen connections

and cause arcing or fire.

Do not place naked flame sources such as

lighted candles close to the TV set.

Do not place a vase filled with water on top of

or near the TV. Spilling water into the TV can

result in electric shock. Do not operate the

TV if water is spilled into the set. Unplug the

power cord from the mains immediately andhave the set checked by a qualified technician.

Do not expose the TV or the batteries of the

remote control to heat, direct sunlight, rain

or water.
